HERE (RapidShare)
* Uninstall all previous version of WinPwn before installing the new one. This will cause many errors if you do not follow this step!
2) Download or find the 2.0 firmware file. If you have downloaded it through iTunes, you can find it on your computer at the following directories:
* VISTA: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates

4) Select the "Browse .ipsw" option, and find the firmware file either at the directory you downloaded it to, or the previously mentioned iTunes directories
6) Options to select
* iPod Touch User and unlocked 2G users: Select Cydia, Installer, and the YouTube fix from Applications, and make the root parition size 500MB. Then hit the "Build .ipsw" in the bottom-left hand corner.

7) Select a destination folder for your .ipsw (Desktop, easiest), and then hit "OK". Wait patiently for the .ipsw creation to finish. A message will pop up when it is done creating the file.
8) Return to the main WinPwn GUI, and select the option labeled "iPwner". Open the custom firmware when it asks you to, and then wait for the message that reads "Your iTunes has been Pwned!"
9) Exit WinPwn and re-check that your device is plugged in. Open iTunes, and wait for it to recognize your device
10) Put your device in DFU mode by following these directions
* Turn your device off and wait 10 seconds
* Hold down both the power and home buttons for 10 seconds
* Release the power button after the 10 seconds, and hold the home button until the device is recognized by iTunes and it says it is in recovery mode
*** Note: Your screen should stay the same color the entire time after turning it off. If it turns on or you get the "Connect to iTunes" screen, then make sure your device is firmly connected, and that your buttons are functioning correctly and are being held in firmly as well
*** To test if you are truley in DFU, hold the power button for 10 seconds while still connected to the computer after it was recognized by iTunes. If it does not turn on, then you are in DFU
11) Hold down the "Shift" button, and select "Restore" from the iPod screen in iTunes. Find your custom firmware that you created, and then open it. Wait for the iPod to restore (Should take 5-30 minutes), and you will have the App Store, 2.0 firmware, Cydia, and Installer on your device
12) If this tutorial worked for you, post it here! I enjoy reading your thanks. If you have any problems with anything after jailbreaking or a little bit of use, PM and I'll be happy to help as best I can. I've come across most problems and might be able to help you find a solution!
